Daniel is 21 years old and just finishing his studies in environmental management. He is interested in all aspects of climate change, but mostly in the economic aspects of it and eager to find solutions that help the conversion of the economy (and society) to low-carbon. Daniel is an open-minded, outgoing and creative person with a sense of humor. He is also a pro kajak paddler and member of the national team since he was 6 years old. His hobbies are all kinds of sports from windsurfing to skiing, but he also enjoys reading and cultural learnings, and he tries to live his life at all times to the fullest.
